StarWalker Organic Farms is a third-generation Certified Organic and Regenerative Organic Certified family-owned farm set at the base of the Marble Mountains in beautiful Fort Jones, California.

Our journey began in 1970 when our grandfather purchased StarWalker Farm. Soon after, Bruce & Lisa Walker, embraced the farming lifestyle and took over the reins. In the 1980s, they became pioneers in the organic movement, earning certification from CCOF and setting a solid foundation for our farm's enduring dedication to organic agriculture.

Their oldest son, Jason Walker, and his wife Kristina decided to move back to their hometown in 2012 to continue the family tradition and expand the farm’s regenerative practices. In 2017, Jason and Kristina reintroduced cattle to the farm with a herd of Scottish Highland cattle and have since added Angus cattle to diversify our livestock. 

This expansion continued with the launch of StarWalker Meats' direct-to-consumer online store in 2020, making high-quality, sustainable meat products available to a wider audience.

Kristina's full-time involvement in 2020 also led to the introduction of our popular organic jerky line in 2021. Despite facing challenges with processing capacity, we made a strategic move in early 2024 by acquiring a processing facility, StarHarvest Co. This expansion has allowed us to maintain control over our production from farm to processing, enabling us to scale efficiently and meet growing demand for our regenerative, organic beef & pork products.

StarWalker Organic Farms achieved a significant milestone by obtaining Regenerative Organic Certified (ROC) status, positioning us as one of the first in the beef industry and the first producer in both the pork and jerky categories to hold this certification. This prestigious recognition underscores our commitment to regenerative and sustainable farming practices, setting us apart in the marketplace and opening doors to new opportunities.

At StarWalker Organic Farms, we believe farming is a harmonious dance with nature, not a battle against it. Our regenerative practices include:

• Rotational Grazing: We rotate livestock through different pastures, allowing each area time to recover and thrive.
• Cover Crops: Planting cover crops between main crops improves soil fertility and structure while preventing erosion.
• Minimal to No-Till Practices: Reducing tillage helps retain soil structure and moisture, and keeps beneficial organisms undisturbed.
• Diverse Planting: A variety of crops and pastures support biodiversity and strengthen our ecosystem's resilience.

These practices nurture the soil, support healthy crops, and create a balanced ecosystem that benefits everyone.

Today, we farm over 3000 acres, producing organic hay and grain. We have over 400 head of cattle and raise about 4000 organic pigs per year, positioning StarWalker as the largest regenerative organic pork producers in the United States. Our products adhere to strict regenerative organic standards, including chemical-free production, sustainable water use, and a commitment to biodiversity and animal welfare.

Kristina and Jason Walker, along with their daughter Calii and their son Cobi, who is now a young adult and pursuing his own path, love life on the farm. Together, they embody the motto "Living the Dream!" Their dedication to producing regenerative organic food not only sustains their community but also sets a high standard for future generations of farmers.

Join us in our journey to create a sustainable and regenerative future. Together, we can make a lasting impact on our planet and our communities.
